Growing up too I was also in the public school "gifted" program until 7th grade (it ended in junior high). Our program was intergrated into your daily schedule. I remember spending about 2 days out of the week in the "gifted" program and then the other days in our regular classroom. It was no big deal growing up because every grade was divided up into sections anyway. Like you had the A,B, C, and D sections which were all based on your learning abilities and levels. Plus, you had the opportunity to "test out" and move up (or down) the next level I think every year or semester. With that said, most of my friends that were in the gifted program was also in my regular class. Plus my gifted program was about 60% black anyway.
